Another top quality shot. Love the stillness in the water and also the reflections especially in the bottom pool. Be interested to know what shutter speed you used and what time it was shot at.

Hi Gerwyn, every now and then there is a photo in the gallery that stops you in your tracks when you view, this photo is one of them in my (humble) opinion. Absolutely first class,superb composition and the colours you've caught are fabulous.
Congratulations on this pic and thanks for sharing it with us.

The shot was taken at Southerndown Bay, just as the tide was turning Tuesday last. f/32 for six seconds, a Lee nd grad 9 (3 stops) was used. Colour saturation was done by using Fred Miranda's Digital Velvia action for Photoshop.

this is probably one of the most beautiful landscape shots that I have seen in a long time. Simply stunning, a well deserved EC. In fact, the more I look at it I'm begining to think that perhaps an EC isn't good enough for this image... it deserves a category of it's own

Well done, Gerwyn. Well deserved choice by Pete. Its absolutely gorgeous - I know what you mean by getting wet if you stand there any longer. Southerndown has the fastest tide. (is it 2nd fastest in the world or something?)

don't know why I have missed your portfolio, there are a number of cracking shots in here, this one though.. well.. what can you say.. the sand stretch marks around the pool, the lighting, the exposure all round, the composition all superb.I have never used filters on my photos but I think I might start as the colour balance on this is spot on.
